Privacy Policy - Security
and Legal Answers
Is all my personal information secure?
We take your security very seriously. Security in an
Internet based business, can be likened to a chain,
that is, its security is only as strong as its weakest
link. Transactional (credit card transactions) security
is one part of this link. We pride ourselves on our
data integrity and the security of our customer database
and information systems.
How is my privacy protected?
Our sportsbook and database servers are contained in
a state of the art data center built in 2001. Our data
center contains automated power transfer facilities
and sophisticated natural disaster prevention security,
including:
State of the art fire suppression
system.
All servers are attached to
redundant UPS (DC power) backup system. This is further
bolstered by an on-site diesel backup generator which
can run our systems for up to a ten days during catastrophic
power outages.
Our servers consist of high end
Sun Solaris Enterprise machines, with raid storage systems
and multiple high speed CPUs. In addition to hardware
redundancy, all our systems are backed up nightly, with
a copy of the tape backup stored off site.
24/7 live network monitoring
by both skilled network administrators and sophisticated
network monitoring programs.
For added security and reliability,
our web sites and customer interface are hosted on redundant
servers in both North America and Europe.
Due to the nature of computer
security, the exact specifications of our intruder detection
and prevention system cannot be disclosed. However, our
security system has multiple defense layers, including
both hardware and software detection units, a firewall,
and live network monitoring by both humans and custom
designed monitoring scripts.
What license is required to conduct business?
We are operated by Belmont.com . Belmont.com is
licensed in Antigua to conduct Internet gaming.
Is gambling on the Internet legal?
Every region throughout the world has different laws,
and they change from time to time, so we can't really
answer that question. To be sure, you should contact
your local legal representative to answer any of your
questions.
